The Code Enforcement Office oversees building, zoning, health, and housing laws. Keeping citizens safe and healthy happens to be their number one concern, and when it comes to your home or place of business the health and safety of those who use those structures should be your top priority too.

Cost isn’t an issue with the Code Enforcement Office. It doesn’t matter how inexpensive something was to build or design; if it isn’t safe, it isn’t good enough. This department keeps tabs on those who are building and business practices are not safe or healthy, and the people on these lists are ones that you do not want to hire.

The folks at the Code Enforcement Office can let you know what contractors have recently been in hot water for doing work that has not been up to code or has not been able to maintain code for a prolonged period of time. The men and women who work here probably cannot make official recommendations, but they can tell you who their repeat offenders are which helps you make a list of contractors to avoid.
